OPERATION CANDY
In October, students from our Historic Anaheim and North Tustin
Campuses collected Halloween candy to send to troops stationed
overseas through a program called Operation Gratitude. The
Halloween candy is added to care packages for the soldiers to
help them feel more connected to home. Our generous students
brought in candy they collected Trick or Treating and created
handmade cards. This "sweet" gesture let the troops know our
Fairmont students truly appreciate them.
Students Help Feed the Homeless in OC
PB & J to the rescue. When Fairmont Prep received an emergency call
from Share Our Selves (SOS) in Costa Mesa asking if our students would
help make 500 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to help feed the
homeless, the answer was "absolutely, no problem." Twenty students
gathered at Fairmont Prep after school and in 1.5 hours made 500
sandwiches. Not only did they have fun working together, but they also
helped a wonderful organization.
